    • A Snitzel yearling colt out of Australian wondermare Winx (Street Cry) has been withdrawn from the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale. He sustained a setback in his prep which will prevent him from taking part in the auction. “The welfare of our beautiful colt is of paramount importance to us and the veterinary advice is that he will need a period of time to recover appropriately from his setback,” part-owner Peter Tighe said. “We will give him all the time that he needs and thus he will be unable to take his place in the sale. “He is in great hands with the team at Coolmore and we look forward to his race career once he has made a full recovery.” During the 2024 Inglis Easter Sale, Winx's Pierro filly Quinceanera sold for A$10 million to co-breeder Debbie Kepitis's Woppitt Bloodstock. Inglis Bloodstock CEO Sebastian Hutch added, “It's obviously disappointing for the industry as a whole that we won't be seeing Winx's Snitzel colt at Easter, based purely off the amazing scenes and theatre his big sister generated at Inglis Easter at Riverside Stables in 2024. “We wish the connections, with whom we have forged a fantastic relationship with over the past few years, all the very best with their beautiful colt and hopefully he goes on to have a successful race career. “The catalogue for the Easter Sale on March 29 and 30 is extraordinary, the quality of yearlings on offer is incredibly high and we are very much looking forward to the sale.” The post Winx’s Snitzel Colt Withdrawn From Inglis Easter Yearling Sale After Setback appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • Three-time G1 Melbourne Cup heroine Makybe Diva has died after a short battle with colic. An Australian racing icon, she was a member of the Australian Racing Hall of Fame since 2006 and achieved Legend status in 2010. She was 27. By Desert King, the mare won the Melbourne Cup from 2003-2005 and is the only Melbourne Cup winner to take the “Race that Stops the Nation” three times. Makybe Stud said in a statement, “A once-in-a-generation legend, Makybe Diva captured the imagination of the nation and the admiration of the global racing community. Her career was defined by courage, endurance and historic achievement. Today, Makybe Diva remains the only horse in history to win three consecutive victories in the Melbourne Cup in 2003, 2004 and 2005.” The Tony Santic-owned runner was first trained by David Hall and captured her first Melbourne Cup for him in 2003. She then moved to the yard of Lee Freedman and was ridden by Hall of Fame jockey Glenn Boss to her other successes. Seven of her victories were Group 1 wins, including the Cox Plate, the Australian Cup, the BMW Stakes and the Sydney Cup. VRC chairman Neil Wilson said of the dual Australian Horse of the Year (2005/2006), “Makybe Diva was more than a champion – she truly transcended the sport of racing. Her three consecutive Melbourne Cup victories stand among the most iconic achievements in Australian sporting history, and the memories she created will never be forgotten. “Our heartfelt condolences go out to her connections, and to the broader racing community who will feel the significance of this loss.” At stud, the daughter of Tugela (Riverman) foaled 10 offspring, with Divanation (All Too Hard) third in a listed race and another daughter producing Group 2-placed Touch Of Mink (Not A Single Doubt).
